Little swan, you know you're almost home
Yes, you tried, but it's time we go
Tattered wings and a broken bone will mend
Dim the world now and stand by me
Find a whispered way to hold your tears
Creatures comfort like children play pretend
Sitting ducks will always dream of flight
Migrate somewhere with a deeper green
But seated flying is a wishful dream
Don't you know by now that nothing's free?
Little swan, it's time we step away
I know you're tired, but it's time we go
Creatures comfort like children play pretend
